With DPP, you can adjust images with the tool palettes by switching between various tool palette windows according to your editing requirements. Since adjustments made with the tool palettes only change the image processing conditions, the “original image data itself” remains unaffected. As there is no image deterioration that normally accompanies editing, you can readjust your image any number of times. The various functions of the tool palettes are explained in more detail under the respective topics.

We recommend that you use the Basic Adjustment tool palette to make adjustments to RAW images. However, if you find that the Basic Adjustment tool palette does not offer a sufficient range of adjustments, or if you want to use specific functions that are only available in the Tone Adjustment tool palette
